The PastFX TD-Y V2: Versatile Tone Shaping in a Compact Design

Faithful Reproduction of a Classic

The PastFX TD-Y V2 is a meticulous recreation of the sought-after Buffalo FX TD-X Equaliser and Gain Booster pedal. Inspired by the valve-powered overdrives favored by rock legends in the ‘80s and ‘90s, this updated version maintains the tonal characteristics of its predecessor while offering modern refinements. With its pedalboard-friendly enclosure and premium components, the TD-Y V2 delivers rich, versatile tone sculpting for players who demand both precision and creativity.

Flexible Tone Shaping and Boost Options

Equipped with controls for Gain, Level, Bass, Mids, and Treble, the TD-Y V2 provides endless opportunities to shape your sound. It can function as a transparent equalizer, a clean or gritty boost, or a complex overdrive, allowing you to tailor its output to any musical style. The pedal offers plenty of headroom, making it equally adept at crafting tones on its own or pushing your amplifier into overdrive.

Enhanced Clipping and Circuit Options

The TD-Y V2 introduces an external three-way toggle switch for enhanced tonal flexibility. Select between symmetrical V1 (factory default) clipping, the new V2 clipping option, or a middle position that removes diode clipping for less compression and a slight volume boost. Additionally, a new push-button switch removes the mids control, returning the pedal to the original four-knob V1 design. These features offer unparalleled control over compression, volume, and tonal dynamics.

Built for Tone Purists

The TD-Y V2 is constructed with audiophile-grade parts from renowned manufacturers like MMK, Wima, and Vishay. True bypass operation ensures your signal remains pristine when the pedal is disengaged, while a dimmable LED offers customizable visibility. Its premium build quality and attention to detail make it a reliable choice for professional musicians and tone enthusiasts alike.

Compact, Efficient, and Reliable

Despite its powerful features, the TD-Y V2 is housed in a compact design that fits seamlessly into any pedalboard setup. With a low power consumption of just 5.5 mA and rugged Neutrik instrument jacks, this pedal is as efficient as it is durable.
